Blue Northern Energy is revitalizing the biodiesel market. BNE's objective is to develop a sustainable and profitable biofuel production industry throughout the United States. BNE integrates the most recent technology advances, refining processes and ingenious minds to develop sustainable and successful biodiesel production facilities. BNE provides guidance and solutions to companies and communities in their undertakings to establish new biodiesel production facilities or retrofitting existing centers to make them sustainable and profitable. Through its work and expertise BNE, identifies itself as the leader in the renewable resource field.

Blue Northern Energy (BNE) has actually acquired an unique technology for producing biodiesel fuel. The Quicksilver Biodiesel Technology (QSB) is a continuous biodiesel production procedure by the trans-esterification of veggie oils. Multiple feedstocks may be utilized, allowing the lowest cost feedstocks to be used. The capability to customize the procedure constantly, as the feedstocks change by regulating the other reactants to the procedure instead of altering batch recipes, makes it a highly flexible and more effective procedure. The process also permits a decrease in capital expense of as much as 40% and a decrease in running cost through lower of up to 30%. These advantages of the innovation have actually been confirmed through a 3rd party assessment completed by the Center for Process Innovation.

The QSB innovation has actually been thoroughly evaluated at the pilot plant in Budapest, Hungary. Feedstocks from Europe as well as the USA have been shown, both individually along with blends.

Developing and improving the innovation is a high concern for BNE, and essential to our global expansion plans. In order to support this, BNE will be developing a brand-new Innovation Center located next to the first biodiesel plant in Newton, Illinois. The center will have the capability to show future feedstock processing and carry out comprehensive fuel quality measurements for BNE plants and experimental samples.

It is the administrator of the BN National Trail center from conceptualization, advancement, building and construction to management. This center exemplifies the innovative innovation of BNE and production process that used several crops, edible and non-edible, for sustainable, high quality and lucrative biodiesel production.

BNE's staff will increase to support this innovation program. A senior chemical process expert will be employed to perform mass and energy balance computations and create the chemical procedure for innovative feedstocks.
